Traditions of Christian Spirituality Series
Book Description Shares the spiritual legacy of St. Augustine from the early Church through today.
“Our hearts are restless until they rest in You”—so wrote St. Augustine of Hippo (354-430), mystic, monk, bishop, seeker, and one of the most influential figures in the history of Christianity. His autobiographical Confessions established the introspective tradition in Christianity—the idea that one’s personal story and human nature could be the starting point for reflecting on God. This volume traces his wide-reaching legacy in the Augustinian Order, among a diverse range of Protestant and Catholic reformers, and in modern currents in the church and spirituality.
